Three Acres Of sheriff rominson . Land Wanted
for the lmpr0vOmen0.

A special meeting of the committee to fur.
nish better water supply, was held In select
council chamber Tuesday afternoon ct the
request of Sheriff Tomlinson, part OF whose
lands on the west side OF the Conestoga creek
it Is proposed to take for the use OF the city
water worka
Mr.. Tomlinson OH jscted to the tab ing Of
the land on the ground that 1t would ipjure
his whole farm by shutting him out from
the public highway. He offered to donate TO
the city an equal space OF land (three scres)
on the opposite side Of the creek, or to buy
for the city three acres OF ground on this side
Of the creek, provided his own land, which
he values at s. 600, was not entered upon.
Mr.. Tomlinson's propositions were re-
garded q unsatisfactory. Eminent civil
engineers have said that his land is the
proper place on which to erect the water
works. To erect them on the opposite side
Of the creek would require an aqueduct and
bridge, and render the works liable to ali
the incidents of Hoods and storms and on
this side of the creek there WAS no other
place so suitable for the works - on Mr.
Tomlinson's farm.
The COMMITTEES therefore, decided 70 take
possession OF Mr.. TOmlinsons land, and had
bond prepared in the sum OF $4,000.
THE bond PRESENTED IN COURT.
City Solicitor Carpenter presented to the
court bond OF the Guy OF Lancaster, condi-
lion TO pay Sheriff ToDlinson for land o b,
taken for water works purposes and ssksd
the court to approve the same.
Sheriff Tomlinson, through his attorney
Mr.. Brown, objected TO the approval OF the
bond. He held that the proceedings were
irregular, that petition should first be pre-
sented to the court setting forth for what
purpose the land Is wanted. He n.
gued that a subcommittee OF councils
had no authority to take this land,
1t requiring an ordinance or resolution OF
councils authorizing the taking Of the land
before anything further can be done.
Solicitor Carpenter withdrew the bond
and will present 1t with . petition, when the
same can be procured.
